"DirectX 11 Support To Reach Crysis 2 Sometime Today
12:11 AM - OhmWrecker - 35 Comments
According to the guys at Maximum PC Crysis 2 should receive a DirectX 11 patch today which will also unlock an advanced graphics menu in-game.
Crysis 2 already looks amazing in DX9 mode, so it'll be interesting to see how much more DX11 adds to the visuals. Thanks goes out to "N Baker" for the tip!
Update: Uh oh, it looks like Maximum PC's sources were a bit off on the release date. Crytek's Tiago Sousa did indeed confirm that they were working on DX11 features on his Twitter account, but he did not give a date. Sousa's tweet has since been removed, and Crytek Community Manager Tom Ebsworth issued the following statement:
No patch was ever confirmed, I have no idea why this website even posted such information. This thread is locked just the same as the others for trying to spread inaccurate information. When there are any big announcements regarding Crysis 2 they will be posted on MyCrysis, if you read something about a patch for example, but don't see it on MyCrysis.com, then it isn't genuine."
DX9...Looking great...New Engine...No DX11 yet...False rumors...
Sounds familiar ?
Salute !
